We kick off our fall class schedule on Saturday, 16 October, with 'Beginning Genealogy' by Sheila Morris.
Genealogy can seem overwhelming to those who are just getting started. In this introduction to the subject Sheila will discuss records, techniques and best practices for conducting sound research. This talk is aimed at beginners and at those who have already started but are still relatively inexperienced. She will also share strategies on how to organize the records and images that result from your research efforts.
Bring as much information as you can about your grandparents; births, marriages, deaths and where they lived. After the talk our volunteers can help you get started using our many resources. The talk begins at 10:30 AM in the large classroom, the fee is $10 and the class includes a handout.
